The Annabelles - Late Spring

In the late spring, the annabelles have their lovely snow-white blooms. In early summer, they start to go green - a lovely, pale, apple green. The first big storm bows them a little, and they aren't so upright as this photo shows for very long. The rain gets trapped in their heads and they bend down. 
Been there? Done that?
One more photo, and I'll have shown you a full season of annabelle hydrangeas!

  1. They are lovely! Really lovely. I want some in my yard.

    And I have, especially lately, had rain trapped in my head and it made me look down instead of up. Silly me.

    Thanks for liking my story!

  2. Those are lovely! I have a pink one that I was trying to turn blue. I faithfully sprinkled my coffee grounds on it for months and now it's more of a lavender color. I think I'll have to go to the MiracleGro Acid. Your white ones are perfect~!

  4. I was only thinking about your sweet annabelles today, remembering the photo of them outside your front door. I wondered if they were a kind of hydrangea - I've never seen white ones before. Here they are lilac or blue, depending on the soil. I'd love to find one for our garden. You certainly have lovely bushes. PS I put a note on my blog yesterday explaining how I did the sunflower in the sky.
